I am trying to get 5 laptops on the same minecraft world for my son's minecraft bday party saturday and i'm having issues. We created his bday world on the best pc we have and the other 4 laptops run minecraft very smoothly with no lag at all but periodically they will get disconnected. They can always get right back on but it's really irritating. They disconnect usually within seconds of each other.The pc hosting the game never lags or shows any signs of trouble. I do not have minecraft server. Just opened to lan and they joined. All pc's are connected to my router via wifi but they have strong wifi signal and are in the same room as the router (I will be getting some ethernet cables for 4 of them before saturday in case that helps) All of the pcs have 1.8.8 minecraft and are free of spyware/viruses, 2 of them are on windows 10 64 bit, the others are on windows 7 64 bit. My internet speed is 13m down and 1m up (crappy dsl) last night they were getting kicked off every 5 minutes. I changed the autosave setting to 30min on all pcs except the one hosting the game and they seem to make it almost 30min so im wondering if the autosave is the problem. Any advice for a stupid noob?
It made it an hour tonight before they got kicked off. all but 1 got kicked off right at the same time. Every other time they were all kicked off. Not sure why 1 remained on this time
It has 8gigs of ddr3 and I just reloaded windows and all drivers, etc... The other pcs all have 4gigs. Do you think it could be due to connecting with wifi? I did a speed test on my internet while they were all on there and it was still 11m down/1m up with them all minecrafting
The host pc has 8gigs of ddr3 and a fresh install of windows and all drivers. The others all have 4 gigs. Do you think it could be because they are all connected with wifi?

Maybe an overflowed connection, sure.

1 of them just got kicked off and my internet got REALLY slow when it happened so that's probably what it is. My internet sucks. Someone said there is a way I can use direct connect for all of them by port and i.p. address on an extra router and not even use internet. Is that true? I have an extra router. My other kid got kicked off 3 min later and hers instead of saying connection timed out it says Internal exception: java.io.IOexception: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine

What's the error people get disconnected with?

It says it timed out. Once in a while it shows a java exception error but that was only twice.
Bad or slow connection with the host PC.Make sure the host PC is has at least 8GB RAM installed.

K. Thanks for all the help. I'll get some ethernet cables tomorrow and try that.
